Does the suspension material affect the period time of a pendulum?

No. Period does not depend on the suspending material. Since the expression derived is:
T = 2Pi(l/g)-1
Of course we rely on some conditions.
1) the string is torsion less
2) the amplitude of oscillation is to be small
3) some massive material is to attached so as to keep the string under tension.

How does height affect the period of a pendulum?
Height does not affect the period of a pendulum.
Does the bob affect the pendulum's time period?
no ,because they are not the same
Does the length of pendulum affect the period of vibration?
Yes. Given a constant for gravity, the period of the pendulum is a function of it's length to the center of mass. In a higher gravity, the period would be shorter for the same length of pendulum.
Does length of the pendulum affect its period?
Technically and mathematically, the length is the onlything that affects its period.
Does the length of the pendulum affect the number of cycles?
no. it affects the period of the cycles.
How does height affect the period of a pendulum?
Height does not affect the period of a pendulum.
How do the parameters of a simple pendulum affect the period of a pendulum?
The period increases as the square root of the length.
Does amplitude effect the period of a pendulum?
no it doesnt affect the period of pendulum. the formulea that we know for simple pendulum is T = 2pie root (L/g)
Does the bob affect the pendulum's time period?
no ,because they are not the same

What happens to time period of a simple pendulum if a heavy body is attached to it instead of bob?
The period of a simple pendulum is independent of the mass of the bob. Keep in mind that the size of the bob does affect the length of the pendulum.
How does mass affect pendulum frequency?
It doesn't. Only the length of the pendulum and the strength of the gravitational field alter the period/frequency.
What are the factors that affect the period of a pendulum?
In an ideal pendulum, the only factors that affect the period of a pendulum are its length and the acceleration due to gravity. The latter, although often taken to be constant, can vary by as much as 5% between sites. In a real pendulum, the amplitude will also have an effect; but if the amplitude is relatively small, this can safely be ignored.
How does the bob affects the period of a pendulum?
The period of a pendulum is totally un-affected by the mass of the bob.The time period of pendulum is given by the eqn.T=2*PIE*(l/g)1/2 ;l is the length of pendulum;g is the acceleration due to gravity.'l' is the length from the centre of suspension to the centre of gravity the bob.ie.the length of the pendulum depends on the centre of gravity of the bob,and hence the distribution of mass of the bob.
What effect does shortening the length of the pendulum have on the period of the pendulum?
A shorter pendulum has a shorter period. A longer pendulum has a longer period.
